In Response To: One Simple Fundamental Choice? (Bill Riles)

I will play 13/6. Gammon chances are small so there is no gain to go for posible trap and wait with checker on mid. In addition White's board is too strong for this scenario. Also Blue is ahead enough in race so 13/7 should be pasrt of the play. For ace I think there is no reason to make barpt. Contact favor White who is behind in race and we don't need barpt. We have to break it and clear in next 1-2 rolls so why make it at all. Spare on 6pt is nice for making 5pt with 31 11 and as spare reservoir which can be bear of while we are waiting White to run with one checker and leave vulnerable (on pick and pass or PoH) blot in our hb.
